Goth anniversary of the marriage of
Nathaniel Roy and wife, mentioned
under the Barnet items, at Barnet Mon
day evening. One of the interesting
features of the married life of this
worthy couple is the fact that they
have never had occasion to buy a
pound of -four or pound of meat dur
ing all these years, raising from their
own farm all of these things that they
consumed. Note that a clergyman is
authority for this statement.

A Watchfnl Clock.

A Watchfn1 Clock.
F. E. Carlton, electrician of the
Howard Watch and Clock Co., has
moved and put greatly improved cleo
trio recording works into the watch
mans clock at the scale works. The
clock was formerly in the store house
but is now in the main Office where it
keeps the watchmen's records as they
go over the factory at night, with I'M
erring accuracy. By the old system
the record was made with a pencil but
by the new device the record is per-
manent one inasmuch as it is made by
punctures through the recording dial
and can be filed for future reference.
1t is a very curious and yet simple
piece of mechanism.

Tuesday noon, when J. R. Batchelder,
who has been out of health all winter,

ing of this abscess occurred in the

Two Weddings.

That was very unique celebration
of the anniversary of Washington's
birthday that occurred at Swanton
Tuesday evening, at the residence of
E. P. Parsons, when w. G.. Bean, su-
perintendent's secretary of the YER
mont division, B. 81 L. railroad, was
united in marriage to Nellie B., daugh-
ter of E. p. Parsons of Swanton. Rev.
T. Burgess of st. Adams tied the knot
and very happy company of relatives
and friends witnessed the ceremony,
among them two sisters of the groom
who are attending Wellesley college.
Congratulatory letters from Mr.. Beams
home in Peoria, ILL.,, and numerous
wedding presents from there and from
other friends were received. Miss
Parsons, the bride, was very popular
among a large circle of friends in her
SwantOn home, who, while recognizing
that what is their loss is Mr.. Beams
gain, nevertheless regret TO lose her
from the place. Mr.. and Mrs. Bean
are spending the week in Boston and
New York and when they return will
make their home at o. Chase's, No. Is
Main street, where they will be cor
daily welcomed by the very pleasant
company who also make that place
their home.
But this ceremony was not the only
one performed that evening. About
ten minutes after Mr.. and Mrs. Bean
were married, Edward l.. Parsons, a
brother of Mrs. Beams, stepped for
ward and was married to a Miss Sheri
dan of SwantOn, the ceremony being a
complete surprise to nearly everyone
in the room excepting the contracting
parties. The whole affair was a sur
prisingly pleasant one.
